In recent years, the automotive market is very actively replenished with new models. And manufacturers love to surprise their fans with unusual solutions. So, for example, 15 years ago, no one could have thought that a Hyundai SUV would appear. But today there are many crossovers produced by this company. And it is worth talking about each model separately.
The most famous model
Which Hyundai SUV is rightfully considered the most popular? That's right, it's a Tuscon. And last year (February 17, 2015), the third-generation Hyundai-Tussan SUV appeared to the world. This is an original cutting-edge crossover that boasts excellent build quality. The third generation, even at first glance, seems much more modern, technological and spectacular, unlike its predecessors.
The main decoration of this car is a false radiator grille. Three chrome strips run across its entire width. Very well integrated into the sidewalls of the grilleoptics. Looks really modern and nice. And the image is complemented by elegant running lights.
But I don't want to focus too much on appearance. The interior of the crossover is also interesting. The multifunctional steering wheel is especially attractive. The developers arranged the center console very well - the ultra-modern dashboard fits into it perfectly. All indications are read as conveniently as possible. It is worth noting that due to the presence of a multimedia center, it is possible to control the owner's phone via Bluetooth. And just below the touch screen is the climate control unit.
And finally about the quality. The new Hyundai SUV can boast of it. Despite the fact that plastic is used in the interior, everything looks very neat. And the fabric used was good. By the way, a salon is offered, in which genuine leather dominates as a finishing material. But this is for a fee.
Features
Tuscan has pretty good technical performance. It should be noted that the car is offered with five different engines - 135 and 176 hp. With. (these are gasoline units), as well as 115, 136 and 184 liters. With. (diesel). The last motor listed is equipped with a dynamic boost turbine.
And the chassis of the car is completely independent. There are MacPherson struts at the front and a multi-link design at the rear.
IX-35
This Hyundai SUV is the successor to the aforementioned Tussan model. To create the IX-35, the developers neededthree years and an amount of $225 million. Manufacturers initially wanted to create not just a crossover, but a worthy competitor for the legendary SUVs. And the result was a car that not only replaced the notorious “Tussant”, but also became even better.
The appearance turned out to be very elegant, and all because the developers followed the concept of flowing lines. But at the same time, the car looks very powerful and sporty. First of all, a person looking at this crossover notices a hexagonal, chrome-plated radiator grille. It, in turn, is complemented by spectacular air intakes. Embossed hood curves complete the look. But the main highlight is the head optics. The headlights extend slightly over the prominent fenders of the car.
Features
Well, what else can boast of this "Hyundai"? The IX-35 SUV, produced after 2013, boasts pretty good engines. In Russia, a 2-liter engine with 150 hp is available. With. as well as diesel units for 136 and 184 liters. With. Interestingly, diesel engines are equipped with a system that recirculates exhaust gases during low pressure. This makes the SUV not only economical, but also environmentally friendly. By the way, crossovers are offered with both “automatic” and “mechanics” (everywhere – 6 speeds).
And this SUV has a very good equipment. The basic configuration offers AUX and USB connectors, music control (placed on the steering wheel), heated all seats, steering wheel adjustment, power mirrors(also equipped with heating), power windows and air conditioning. If a person wants more options, then you will have to pay extra. But on the other hand, he will receive climate control, a “cruise”, light and rain sensors, a heated steering wheel, a panoramic roof (there will even be a sunroof), bi-xenon optics and much more.
IX-55
This is another Hyundai SUV that deserves attention. Otherwise it is also known as Veracruz. This model has been produced since 2007. The car was created on a platform taken from the Hyundai Santa Fe (this car will be discussed a little later).
IX-55 is a spacious SUV designed for seven people. A great car for lovers of long journeys. Interestingly, this is a new, independent model, and not an updated modification of any predecessor. That's why the design is so unique. The developers took some elements of the exterior from SUVs manufactured by Lexus and Infiniti.
The interior boasts an excellent audio system, leather interior, cruise control and expensive wood panels. And this is the basic package! As additional options, parking sensors, a large number of pillows, sensors, etc. are offered. But the most important thing is the off-road behavior of this car. This car does not care about bad roads, pits, potholes and potholes. And this is its main advantage.
Technical indicators
IX-55 exists in two different modifications. The first is 3.0 CRDI AT. The maximum speed of this vehicle is190 kilometers per hour, and acceleration to hundreds takes him 10.7 seconds. The engine displacement is 2959, and the power is 239 liters. With. Consumption in this case is 9.4 liters of fuel in the combined cycle per 100 km.
Second modification - 3.8 AT. Top speed is the same. But acceleration to hundreds takes much less time - only 8.3 seconds. The working volume is also larger - 3778. And the power is 260 liters. With. Consumption is slightly higher than in the previous case - 9.6 l.
Another of the characteristics is the presence of EBS, ABS, ESP systems, as well as a dual amplifier.
Hyundai Santa Fe
Now it's worth telling about this Hyundai car. SUVs, the lineup of which is quite diverse, have their own characteristics. And in the case of Santa Fe, the main feature is the rich equipment, smoothness, as well as luxury and convenience. Thanks to these qualities, the model is often compared with various American representatives.
The pronounced head optics are very eye-catching. All in all, the design is very good. As is the interior! It resembles the interior of a business class car. It is striking how well the instruments fit together and the instrument panel looks very ergonomic overall. Only high quality materials were used in the decoration. Inside there are even panels made “under the tree”. In general, a spectacular car - it is not without reason that it is so popular.
Engines
Initially, only two petrol units couldboast "Hyundai Santa Fe". The SUV was equipped with only a 2-liter 136-horsepower engine and a V-shaped “six” for 179 liters. With. Its volume was 2.7 liters. The first motor listed worked only under the control of a manual transmission - they were equipped with only front-wheel drive modifications. And more powerful units were already equipped with an “automatic”. A little later, the engine line was replenished with a 16-valve 2.4-liter 150-horsepower 4-cylinder engine.
But these are the characteristics of those models that were produced at first. Then came a turbodiesel 2.2-liter engine that produces 197 hp. With. Due to this engine, the car accelerates to hundreds of kilometers in just 9.8 seconds. The maximum speed of the model with such a motor is 190 km / h. And the consumption is only 6.6 liters in the combined cycle.
Then came the 2.4-litre, 174bhp petrol unit. And in 2010, a 3.5-liter 376-horsepower “six” began to be installed under the hoods of the Santa Fe.
“Terracan”
A few words should be said about this Hyundai model. The SUV, the photo of which is provided above, received rather conflicting reviews. But despite this, he found his calling. Its highlight is excellent sound insulation. Even at high speeds (140 km / h and above), the cabin will be quiet. The interior is well done. The wood-trimmed steering wheel looks especially good. And the driver's seat is equipped with servomotors, which is very practical, because the seat can be easily adjusted in all positions.
The most powerful engine that was installed under the hood of thiscrossover - a 3.5-liter V-shaped engine for 200 "horses", and it is controlled by a 4-band "automatic". There is also an option with a 2.9-liter turbodiesel under the hood - it produces 150 hp. With. In general, this is also a good Hyundai.
Used SUVs get a wide variety of reviews. Mostly, of course, positive. If you combine them, then this is what the owners of Hyundai crossovers say: cars are reliable, hardy and economical. It doesn't take much fuel and the parts are very cheap. If they are still needed, since the crossovers are assembled very soundly. And of course, they pay attention to the high cross-country ability and excellent handling.
In general, if you need a spacious, comfortable, reliable SUV, then you can safely opt for crossovers from Hyundai.
